The OES is a wonderful breed, but as with all dogs they must be socialized as puppies as they grow very quickly. I have come across too many owners that say 'oh he/she isn't very friendly with other dogs/people'and have shown 'somewhat aggressive' temperments. (LINEBREAK)This breed properly raised should always be social, outgoing and happy to meet with others dogs and people alike.(LINEBREAK)All of mine have been and are trustworthy with babies and children aswell as adults of both two and four legged variety.(LINEBREAK)
